MIRACRUZ APARTMENT REFURBISHMENT. The building where the flat is located was built in 1920 using a reinforced concrete structure. The previous distribution consisted in a series of different rooms all connected by a corridor. The project tries to recover the bay window as the main space of the house and the authors insert here a dining-living room as well as the kitchen. This space has double orientation from the street façade to the courtyard. This provides a great illumination and cross air circulation. As the kitchen was placed in the middle of the flat, the floor area for bedrooms increased and the corridor almost disappeared. This refurbishment allows to see how important the structure is on this project and that is the reason why the beams and columns remain bare. This action strengthens the importance of the central space next to the bay window.
